Malic enzyme 3 mediated the effects of malic acid on intestinal redox status and feed efficiency in broilers

Abstract Background Intestinal oxidative stress serves as an endogenous host defense against the gut microbiota by increasing energy expenditure and therefore decreasing feed efficiency (FE). Several systems coordinately regulate redox balance, including the mitochondrial respiratory chain, nicotina...
